Volume and materials

Volume and materials

The origin of this project is a raincoat from the nineties. I dismantled it, arranged the pieces in a different order, and started to question the pattern as the matrice of something reproducible.

Same pattern, three materials

Due to the characteristics of each material, I assembled the pieces in different ways, trying to listen and understand the possibilities of it.

The costumes that came out of this process question textures, transparency and stiffness.

The work was completed by dance, video and sound performance. A dancer wore the costumes, her movements were impacted by them. The sound was a recording of each material. During the dance, I projected a video of the raw material used and transformed to create the clothes. That projection was an ornamental moving pattern of the costumes.
